Imperial University is one of the most prestigious universities in the country and the world, making it a very liberal university.
As time went on, Paula Rouco stayed over at Severo Laris’ house more and more frequently, but because of Lastra’s light bulb and because there was only one bathroom in the house, Paula Rouco’s stays were not excessive and more or less uncomfortable.
That Saturday afternoon, Lastra, nibbling on an apple, leaned against Severo Laris’s bedroom door and asked, “Is Paulita coming tomorrow for the weekend?”
“What for?”
“If Paulita comes, I’ll sleep in the office to make room for her for fear she won’t be able to have a more intimate interaction with me, the superbulb.”
Severo Laris threw a cold knife, “And you know you’re a lightning rod?”
“That’s right, Severo, don’t you think that’s impressive? I’m going to sleep on that cot at work for you, and I’ve sacrificed so much for you and Paulita that I’m going to be your best man when you get married.”
The married words … made Severo Laris shudder.
Severo Laris looked at the stock chart on his computer screen and said, “You don’t have to leave your seat tomorrow, whether Paulita comes or not.”
“You’re opening a hotel, huh?”
“No, I bought a house.”
The corner of Lastra’s mouth tightened: “…”
What a fanatic this one is.
Buying a house in Imperial? Just say buying?
“Ahem, Severo, you actually bought a house, where is it?”
“Near Imperial University, in the Imperial neighborhood. ”
Lastra’s jaw dropped, “Fuck, the houses in the Imperial neighborhood are not cheap, they are near Imperial University, they cost at least 40. 000 a square meter, where did you get the money?”.
Severo Laris: “The scholarship money from my childhood and the money I have earned in the last two years speculating on the stock market, plus the half a million that Rufio has lent me, cover almost the whole thing.”
“…”
Life, always losing to these perverted characters!
Lastra: “If there were fewer super-perverts like you in this society, there’d be a ton of girls chasing me!”
Severo Laris hooked his thin lips and said, “Help me move tomorrow.”
“Yes. In the future, don’t forget about the little guy when you become prosperous, according to this trend, it won’t be long before you become the house generation.”
Lastra sighs: people are really angry with each other.
He was still struggling in a small mud puddle when his good brother Severo Laris had come out of the pit and made several fortunes, buying his first multimillion-dollar house.
Lastra: “If you’re rich, don’t forget it!”
…
On the weekend afternoon, Severo Laris came to pick up Paula Rouco.
Sitting on the motorcycle, Paula Rouco realized that this was not the way to her rented house and turned to him to ask, “Where are we going, not to your house?”
“To go, however, to our house.”
Paula Rouco didn’t react, much less guess that Severo Laris had bought a suite for a fortune.
When Severo Laris drove her to the Imperial Community neighborhood, Paula Rouco cluelessly asked, “Severo, what are we doing here, do you have friends who live here?”
Severo Laris smiled without saying a word and just pulled her toward the elevator.
Until, upon reaching the door to the eighth floor, Severo Laris stood behind her, took her small hand and pressed the door code.
And he leaned toward her and whispered in her ear, “The code number to open the door is from the day we met at La familia Rouco. ”
Paula Rouco, dazed and confused, wrapped her arms around him, turned her head to look at him, and asked, “Did you move?”
The last number was pressed and the door clicked open.
Severo Laris told her, “This is the first suite I buy, and it will be much easier for you to come later.”
Paula Rouco looks at the modern, minimalist European and American decor in front of her and can’t believe this is Severo Laris’ new home.
Even though she had been born into The Rouco family and had no shortage of money since she was little and didn’t have to worry about any high prices, and they had homes all over The Rouco family, she knew the homes wouldn’t be cheap, both because of their location and this upper-middle-end neighborhood.
“Severo, how did you get so much money, did you go rob a bank?”
Severo Laris looked at her confused little face and raised his hand to smack her upside the head, “I studied law, do you think I would skip the law and rob a bank?”
Besides, does this little fool really think that robbing a bank is so easy nowadays?
“Where did you get all that money, did you borrow it from loan sharks?”
The more it is said, the more outrageous it becomes.
Severo Laris was so angry he wanted to laugh, “Am I that incompetent in your eyes?”.
“I didn’t mean that, it’s just that you suddenly have a large amount of money and as your girlfriend, I had no idea.”
Severo Laris put his arm around her back, looked at the house and said, “The money to buy the house is from the scholarship I’ve earned over the years and the money I’ve made speculating on the stock market over the last two years, and I borrowed half a million from Rufio, but I’ll be able to pay him back when I get rid of the shares I have next week.”
“… Severo, can you make a lot of money speculating in stocks?”
This house must cost several million dollars in any case!
Severo Laris did some rough calculations and said, “I haven’t done thorough calculations, but in the last two years I’ve made about five million dollars from stock trading, some funds and the money from the law firm lawsuit, part of which went to pay off my mother’s debts, otherwise I wouldn’t have had to ask Rufio for money this time. ”
Paula Rouco looked at him adoringly, her gaze shining brightly, “Severo, you are amazing!”.
Severo Laris was unimpressed and said in a light voice, “You are in an environment where there are many great people, businessmen of your father’s caliber, the height to which every son of ours who studied finance would want to reach.”
Paula Rouco turned and hugged him by the neck, with a radiant smile on her little face and a confident tone of voice: “Severo, you are going to be a better man in the future, maybe even better than my father.”
Severo Laris patted her on the waist and said, “Let’s see the house first, it’s second hand, almost new, and I saw that the decoration was in good style, so I left it largely intact, look what you don’t like and I’ll find someone to change it later.”
Paula Rouco looked around the room and said with satisfaction, “I think it’s all good, no need to change it.”
The house is a two-bedroom house, but one of the original bedrooms has been transformed by Severo Laris into a studio, which houses Paula Rouco’s piano.
“Whenever you want to practice later, you can.”
The girl let out a laugh, “Severo, why do you suddenly want to buy a house?”
Severo Laris said, “The house you rented before had Lastra and it was uncomfortable for you to always go there. And that house is also not very close to the school. It’s not too convenient for you to practice the piano.”
Paula Rouco was thrilled to tears, “So you spent all your savings on the house just to make it easier for me to practice?”
She tilted her little face, her soulful, adoring gaze, and those lovely moist almond-shaped eyes, even just looking at him, were a seduction in disguise for Severo Laris.
Severo Laris got a lump in his throat and his gaze turned dark.
The man led her in one hand to the open kitchen table.
Paula Rouco, caught off guard, gasped in surprise and clutched at his neck.
She sat at the kitchen table, her whole slender figure standing in front of her, the man’s big, slender, beautiful hands pressing against the back of her neck and pulling her to himself to kiss her.
The house was bought more for her own comfort than for her to come and practice the piano.
Severo Laris is not so righteous, nor is he a teenage brat who doesn’t know any better. At twenty-five, and with the premature changes in his family, he is far more mature than any of his peers, and even has a mental age of thirty.
For the first time he found himself with a girl he liked so much, selfishly wanting to surround her, wanting to make her his, selfishly wanting her to behave and not give an inch to him.
Buying a house is the most direct way to hold her captive.
